What is Guan Yu's green robe called?

It's called the court dress, which was worn by officials in the Han Dynasty on official occasions such as going to court or handling official business. The main costumes in the Han Dynasty were robes and skirts [straight single clothes] and skirts [short clothes]. In the Han Dynasty, because of the very developed weaving and embroidery industries, rich people could wear beautiful clothes of silk and satin. Ordinary people wear short pants, and the poor wear short brown [short clothes made of coarse cloth].

The original color of the green robe worn by Guan Yu should be spring cyan, which belongs to the brightly colored robes in the court. It was also one of the mainstream clothes worn by the upper class at that time, but it faded after wearing for a long time and looked like green. Moreover, at that time, the processing of colors in pigment workshops was not as developed as in the later period, and many color systems could not be applied to fabrics.

Guan Yu is wearing this so-called green robe. In fact, personally, it is not whether it is given by his eldest brother Liu Bei, but that he must wear formal clothes, so-called official clothes, to attend court meetings. Cao Cao was then the prime minister, presiding over the discussion among officials. He may find that the color of Guan Yu's robe is different from other robes in spring and youth, which is particularly eye-catching, so he changed it into a new robe.

In addition, Guan Yu did not dare to wear Cao Cao's new royal suit (red) outside, but wore a green robe. Personally, Guan Yu is not only nostalgic, but also reserved and conceited (a little shy). More importantly, his rank has not reached the status of wearing a red robe, because in ancient times, according to his status, there were strict restrictions on the color of clothing. The red robe is only for the prime minister, the third prince and the king. He is a shouting little man.
